Requirements

I am looking for a clean two column design that is similar in look and feel to my current company website located at http://www.sambaconsulting.com. I am looking for a clean an simple design without any fuss.
I would like to be able to add Twitter stream into the sidebar so this must be considered in the design. Other sidebar elements will be latest posts, RSS Feed, Email RSS Feed (via Feedburner) and archives

The blog will be used to showcase our blogging services as described above so it should be professional without being to corporate in its look. I am happy for the designers to use appropriate imagery for headers etc.

Design should have a home page (for blog posts) about page and an our services page
